Did SCO 'Borrow' Linux Code?
An Anonymous Reader writes "Apparently someone inside SCO has stated that SCO(actually Caldera) copied Linux code into System V. They did it to build what they now market as Linux Kernel Personality - the ability to run Linux software on their Unix. Now, the open source community(of course they don't mention who) is jumping on this, because they didn't return the changes to the OS community or give the community credit. Of course, SCO says it's a misunderstanding and, get this 'SCO also never used any of the Linux kernel code.'"
and they said BSD was dead..
Actually...if you really wanted to make some cash...you'd run a butterfly spread on it...that way you would catch the hyped upswing when the courtcase began...and catch the crash when they lose ;)...plus, because it's optioned based...the barrier to entry is like 10% of the stock ownership barrier...but given current volatility, you'd probably be have to overpay a little for the options...just my 2c

FBI apprehended two suspicious trespassers in the water treatment plant outside the city. The trespassers claimed themselves to be Osama bin Laden and Saddam Hussein. The FBI agent interrogated the trespassers:
FBI agent Smith: What the hell are you two trying to do?!
Osama: Jihad!!!! Jihad!!!! Jeeeeehhaaaaaaaaaa!!!!
Saddam: We will poison you evil Americans with our WMD! We will detonate this weapon over your water supply and kill you all!
Smith (holding up a bunny suit wrapped in a stick of dynamite): With this?!?
Saddam: YES! My mole in your government has confirmed that this suit in indeed a WMD!!! Die!
Osama: Jeeeehaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!
Cheers,

Well, one counter argument is that there were a lot of toxic chemicals and depleted uranium left over from the previous gulf war.
Someone had to remove all those dangerous uranium slugs from the crumbled buildings and busted tanks so that they could reprocess them and...
Rumsfeld himself used this line when discussing the entire WMD issue - pre-invasion, I believe. I'm sure Bill Hicks would have loved hearing the Bush administration using his material too.

Save your work first. Off your computer and any computers connected to it.

Since when was a simple statement of the facts a joke?
Facts? What facts? Just because they shook hands, and then CIA director Bush Sr. approved biological weapons shipments, and the US and other security council countries ripped out thousands of pages of information from Iraq's report which detailed all weapons in the country; that doesn't mean the US actually *gave* Iraq any weapons. Rumsfeld himself said he believed the US didn't give any such weapons in front of a senate committee; he couldn't have been lying could he? Could he?
This is left as an exercise for the reader.
Whoa bud... drive by shootings?
